  • Basic drivers for USB, discs and Ethernet should have gone in with the W7 installation. If they didn't, try one of the following:- 1. Reinstall W7 from bootable disc. 2. Check if there is a partition holding the manufacturer's drivers and utilities: some of these may work with W7. 3. Boot up a Live CD: this will have USB drivers, and can be used to copy from USB to hard drive. 4. Perform a factory restore, copy the drivers, re-install W7 (you can restore any personal files from the back-up that you must have taken before embarking in the down-grade).

  • Forget to mention: laptop doesn't have any cd/dvd reader because it's too slim. Same for direct WLAN connection. AND my Windows 7 isn't the most guenuine version, so it installed with a setup.exe instead of .iso file... So how to make a Live CD with this?
